"Poll question: Best solo sophomore outing from NYC in the mid-late 90s?"
Thu Sep-02-21 02:50 PM by cidolfas

  

          

From Jan. 1995 to Dec. 1999, who do you think had the best sophomore album as a solo artist in the New York scene?

DMX - Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood, Busta Rhymes - When Disaster Strikes... and Fat Joe - Jealous One's Envy would be my runners up for the poll.

A lot of good/great sophomore albums came out in 2000 as well, or missed the cut dropping in 1994, so it feels a little limiting.

Poll result (32 votes)
GZA - Liquid Swords (11 votes)Vote
Jay-Z - In My Lifetime, Vol. 1 (1 votes)Vote
Nas - It Was Written (6 votes)Vote
The Notorious B.I.G. - Life After Death (5 votes)Vote
AZ - Pieces of a Man (1 votes)Vote
O.C. - Jewelz (8 votes)Vote

      In Chicago, we lumped NJ & NYC altogether anyway.
